Fellow aviators,
?
Let's start with the subject of dues:
?
Our annual chapter dues are payable by December 31st. ?David Sorrells has set us up with payment capabilities using PayPal, a service that I? myself use in my business. Simply go to paypal.com (you don't have to have an account), select to send money and use this email address link for the payment: eaa1656gc@...?
It worked for me and others last December.? If you would rather mail a check, make it out to EAA Chapter 1656 and send it to David's address:
?
David Sorrells
1207 Cannon Street
Gladewater, TX? 75647
?
Or you may pay dues at our December meeting (see below)...
?
-----------------------------------
?
To continue:
?
After a several month trial of the third Thursday meetings we've experienced very low attendance in comparison to our previous Second Saturday meetings.? At our meeting this past Thursday evening, multiple comments were made pertaining to:
?
1.? Moving the meetings back to a regular Saturday, i.e. first, second, third or fourth Saturday...
?
2.? Moving to perhaps a different weeknight other than Thursdays.
?
3.? Suggestions for a specific theme of each meeting, i.e. for different presentations, or activities preplanned each month and published agenda for the next monthly meeting.
?
4.? General suggestions? regarding bringing friends, etc. to see if we can expand our membership.
?
5.? Suggestions for/against/indifferent about incorporating meetings at a restaurant with/without having the remainder of the meeting to continue at the FBO.? Should we remain in the Gladewater area, or meet elsewhere?? Should be choose a different venue every month??
?
6.? We have a Facebook page and a web page.? How should be manage them, or should we bother?? Who should be? handling the posting, etc.?
?
7.? Why do we not have a chapter president?? Suggestions?? Volunteers?
?
8.? Should we just shut down the chapter and last one to leave turns out the lights?? (NOT my choice!)
?
All topics, comments, etc. are welcomed and needed.
Please respond to this initial message and responses so that subsequent comments can be fully disclosed without opening new comments.
?
Thanks!?

Wife's health problems have made night- time meetings very difficult.? Saturday mornings work much better for me.? I usually can find someone to stay with her during the daytime.
Thanks,

Fellow aviators,

Let's start with the subject of dues:
?
Our annual chapter dues are payable by December 31st. ?David Sorrells has set us up with payment capabilities using PayPal, a service that I? myself use in my business. Simply go to paypal.com (you don't have to have an account), select to send money and use this email address link for the payment: eaa1656gc@...?
It worked for me and others last December.? If you would rather mail a check, make it out to EAA Chapter 1656 and send it to David's address:
?
David Sorrells
1207 Cannon Street
Gladewater, TX? 75647

Or you may pay dues at our December meeting (see below)...
